Question

what is the answer to 20x+5y=40

Answer 1

Simplifying

-20x + 5y = 40

Solving

-20x + 5y = 40

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-5y' to each side of the equation.

-20x + 5y + -5y = 40 + -5y

Combine like terms: 5y + -5y = 0

-20x + 0 = 40 + -5y

-20x = 40 + -5y

Divide each side by '-20'.

x = -2 + 0.25y

Simplifying

x = -2 + 0.25y
